Weymouth, Richard Francis
Bible. Revelation
022:006 And he said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true;
and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the Prophets,
sent His angel to make known to His servants the things
which must soon happen.
022:007 'I am coming quickly.' Blessed is he who is mindful of
the predictions contained in this book."
022:008 I John heard and saw these things; and when I had heard and seen them,
I fell at the feet of the angel who was showing me them--
to worship him.
022:009 But he said to me, "Oh, do not do that. I am a fellow
bondservant of yours, and a fellow bondservant of your brethren
the Prophets and of those who are mindful of the teachings
of this book. Worship God."
022:010 "Make no secret," he added, "of the meaning of the predictions
contained in this book; for the time for their fulfillment
is now close at hand.
022:011 Let the dishonest man act dishonestly still; let the filthy
make himself filthy still; let the righteous practise
righteousness still; and let the holy be made holy still."
022:012 "I am coming quickly; and My reward is with Me, that I may requite
every man in accordance with what his conduct has been.
022:013 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,
the Beginning and the End.
022:014 Blessed are those who wash their robes clean, that they may
have a right to the Tree of Life, and may go through the gates
into the city.
022:015 The unclean are shut out, and so are all who practise magic,
all fornicators, all murderers, and those who worship idols,
and every one who loves falsehood and tells lies.
022:016 "I Jesus have sent My angel for him solemnly to declare
these things to you among the Churches. I am the Root
and the offspring of David, the bright Morning Star.
022:017 The Spirit and the Bride say, 'Come;' and whoever hears,
let him say, 'Come;' and let those who are thirsty come.
Whoever will, let him take the Water of Life, without payment.
022:018 "I solemnly declare to every one who hears the words of the prophecy
contained in this book, that if any one adds to those words,
God will add to him the plagues spoken of in this book;
022:019 and that if any one takes away from the words of the book
of this prophecy, God will take from him his share in the Tree
of Life and in the holy city--the things described in this book.
022:020 "He who solemnly declares all this says, "'Yes, I am
coming quickly.'" Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
022:021 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people.
